Daily Adaptive Radiation Therapy Using an Individualized Approach for Prostate Cancer (NCT05804318)

🟢 Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ⚙️ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Varian, a Siemens Healthineers Company

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This trial is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center clinical trial designed to assess whether adaptive radiotherapy with urethral sparing for low to intermediate risk localized prostate cancer will translate into a decreased rate of patient reported acute urinary side effects, as measured by the patient reported EPIC-26 questionnaire, compared with the historically reported rate for non-adaptive, non-urethral sparing prostate SBRT.

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (8 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (10 items).
